I just remembered Shino-chan wa Jibun no Namae ga Ienai,
[s]The only good manga from that mangaka in my opinion...[/s]
Honestly, I really liked it.

So I'm looking for:
a better manga has Social Anxiety or Social Anxiety Disorder as a topic,
or with the main character dealing with his "anxiety" * Update
or even a main character that has another similar problem.

Any ideas?

  • I'm not looking for supernatural, NEET and sexual topics
    I don't really like "super loser" main characters...
  • Kimi ni Shika Kikoenai seems good since it's from those mangaka (Goth)

I haven't read Shino-chan so I am not very sure about these suggestions -

Kimi ni Shika Kikoenai
Another
Onani Master Kurosawa

I think these fit well :
Denpa Onna to Seishun Otoko (Some ecchi. Haven't read the manga, but in the anime it wasn't much of a bother)
Ano Hana

These ones are more about loners or very shy protagonists :
Kokou no Hito
Kimi ni Todoke
Genkaku Picasso
Hibi Chouchou

Koe no Katachi - the protagonist has problems connecting with others, and agonizes over trying to. The female lead has similar problems.

Stalker has this, though I guess he's technically a NEET...?

Genshiken has these types of characters.

Possibly Jisatsutou.

Okay... How about any GOOD manga with the main character deals with his "shyness"
or anything in that sort of thing.
OR I should say... Any good similarities to what I'm looking for... 😀 😕

Haru x Kiyo off the top of my head.

Have you tried the looking under the category labeled shy?
~ Overcoming Shyness ~ Shy Female Lead ~ Shy Male Lead ~ Shy Protagonist
~ Social Anxiety ~ Social Anxiety Disorder ~ Social Phobia ~

I searched for "Social Anxiety ~ Social Anxiety Disorder"
as "much more like a psychological problem".
Maybe I should have searched for the "psychological" genre too,
now that I think about it again...

Well keep in mind that psychological is very different then just having SAD character. I often find it hard to read them as the reality is warped. The Nightmare of Fabrication or Serial Experiments Lain, that anime of the kind of the golden bat and Welcome to the NHK are the only ones I would say are psychological. I think Mira Nikki is tagged as psychological but it feels more like a play or die + Yandere.
